Lukas Wesemann PhD completion
Congratulations to Lukas Wesemann who was awarded his PhD on 5 March. His citation states that he investigated all-optical image processing with nanostructures. He demonstrated both thin-film and patterned surfaces that can detect the edges of features in an image or permit visualisation of transparent objects. His study will enable the development of ultracompact and […]optics.physics.unimelb.edu.au/2021/03/09/lukas-wesemann-phd-completion

Detecting the Rotation of a Quantum Spin
Alex Wood and Rob Scholten have co-authored a new paper in Physical Review Letters, highlighted in Physics Focus, that is generating a lot of excitement. Their experiments demonstrate the fundamental connections between spin, physical rotation, and quantum phase, and are applicable in schemes where the rotational degree of freedom of a quantum system is not […]optics.physics.unimelb.edu.au/2020/01/24/detecting-the-rotation-of-a-quantum-spin

Novel ultra-compact approach to image edge-enhancement published
Members of the group report on the use of a simple, near-perfect absorber to selectively spatial filter a reflected image. The article published in APL Photonics suggests an alternative approach to novel object-plane filtering. Link to the article here.
